As a long time Mantha fan, I'm not going to get too excited just yet. When he's on, he's borderline dominant, but therein lies the problem- he's far too often mailing it in. It would be unreasonable to expect him to play every game like he did last night, but he would be a force if he put in the same effort game after game. If Huska could motivate him to perform every night (and he seems to have every reason to put down roots with a new baby) I wouldn't have a problem if they extended him a few more years.
